However, the man isn’t much remembered now. There is very little info about him even on the internet.  So in such a situation a biopic on him gains a lot of importance. Ek Albela is an attempt put on the silver screen the life of the maverick filmmaker who made dozens of popular action films and even introduced the concept of the dancing hero in Indian films which later became a ubiquitous feature of Indian cinema.
The teaser gave an intriguing peek into the film and definitely left us asking for more.
The teaser launch of the film Ekk Albela was attended by the cast and crew in full force. Mangesh Desai has been casted in the titular role and he spoke about the challenges and the fortune of getting the opportunity to play such a role.

The high point of the afternoon apart from the impressive teaser was an impromptu jig by Mangesh Desai to the very popular tune of ‘Shola Jo Bhadke’ . What was even more memorable was that he was joined by Bhagwan Dada’s son, Arun Palav, in the dance and the enthusiasm shown by the now old man was infectious.
